We are a team that has grown together over many years. We support and inspire one another, and when needed, we step in for each other. As midwives working with a holistic approach, we provide comprehensive care and create space for you to grow as a family. Through our training, academic studies, and individual additional qualifications, we are able to support you during the special phases of pregnancy and becoming parents.
Students of midwifery science complete their out-of-hospital placements with us and are supervised and guided by our team of midwives.
Coordination
Monika Leipold
Coordination
I support the Spree Hebammen team part-time in organisational matters. I manage incoming emails, coordinate registrations for birth preparation and postnatal recovery classes, and ensure that enquiries from pregnant people, postpartum mothers, and parents are forwarded promptly to the midwives.
External Cooperation Partners
Simon Mülling
Midwife
I was born in 1996 and have been working as a midwife since 2022. In my work, it is important to me to provide care that is evidence-based, empathetic, queer-sensitive, non-judgmental, and as accessible as possible.
For me, evidence-based practice means aligning information and recommendations around pregnancy and birth with current scientific knowledge. Working without judgment means meeting families and their lifestyles, questions, and challenges with openness and respect, and finding individual, needs-oriented solutions together.
Sangeeta Lerner
Yoga
I was born in Bombay (India) in 1979 and am a trained Hatha yoga teacher with a special focus on pregnancy and recovery yoga, baby massage as well as yoga offers for babies and children. As a mother of two children I have experienced the supportive effect of yoga during pregnancy and after birth itself.
Due to my origin, I am closely associated with the tradition of Indian baby massage, which I am happy to pass on to parents and their babies. Currently, I offer baby massage for families as well as father-child play groups up to the 18th month of life. My father-child offerings (“Daddys Day Out”) create a private, protected space for fathers and their children.
Denise Bödeker
Yoga
I am a certified Hatha Yoga teacher and have intensively trained in the field of yoga therapy and spiral dynamics.
At the Spreehebammen praxis I offer pregnancy yoga and yoga with baby after birth from September.
My courses are prevention courses that are subsidized by the statutory health insurance companies.
My classes can be very diverse and yet there are always connecting elements: moving, breathing, coming to rest, relaxing, feeling the body. I will guide you through the hour(s) that you will leave every time with a good body feeling.
I look forward to seeing you! See you on the mat.
Mian Rühl
Physiotherapy/
Pelvic Floor Therapy
I am Mian (no pronouns, they/them, elle) and I work in the practice as a physiotherapist and yoga teacher. My focus is on evidence-based pelvic floor and pain therapy, as well as queer-sensitive and appreciative communication.
I support people during pregnancy and after birth, for example in cases of incontinence, pain, prolapse symptoms, or questions related to sexuality. In my work, I combine physical treatment with an awareness of the emotions and relationships connected to these experiences.
Leonie Krügener
Instructor
I was born in Berlin and am a trained instructor in feminist self-defence and assertiveness (WenDo), a trauma educator, and a social scientist. My work focuses on gender-based violence, social role expectations, and topics related to parenthood and motherhood. As a mother of one child, I combine professional expertise with personal experience.
In my work, I create safe spaces for exchange and aim to empower people to expand their ability to act and to follow their own path with confidence and self-determination. A trauma-sensitive approach and a mindful awareness of different experiences of violence, discrimination, and gender diversity are fundamental to my work.

To help men prepare for birth and the time afterwards, I offer a three-hour course exclusively for expectant fathers, with a focus on the well-being of both mother and child. The course combines practical facts with open exchange about the first months of parenthood.
